Why black sand? Aesthetics ?

Why black instead of white? Or why not gravel?

I went for sand specifically because I want corys and they like to root around in the substrate for food and stuff. Gravel doesn't allow them to do that as much and can harm their barbels.

I wanted black sand as a few tanks that I'd seen with dark substrates and backgrounds really made the fish and plants stand out. I could have gone with Argos play sand for about £6 but thats only available in white for obvious reasons.

Bet the cat's thinking 'hmm that better not be lunch'

hehe, he (Spock) is thinking "New box to sit in?". They've already had a mooch around the empty tank!
